A Gold Rush for "Attention" vs a Premium for "Meaningful Information"

I read in a much-respected media blog this week that there’s a "gold rush for attention" going on – and I’ll wager that you all know just what is meant. But there is also a premium that folks are willing to pay (in time) for meaningful information. What defines "meaningful" in this context is that it applies to you, right now. Whether that’s heading into a meeting, getting on a plane, processing an invoice, negotiating with suppliers…I could go on. What you need is the kind of information that helps you to make better decisions. SSON can't be everything to all people, and nor do we want to be. What we can be, however, is a valued partner to you. Our aim, quite simply, is this: to guide you on your shared services delivery journey; to alert you about new solutions or tools; to share what some of the cleverest (and best paid) folks working in this industry are thinking; to offer you opportunities for face-to-face (and as of this summer, also "online", through our new "Shared Intelligence" platform) networking and information exchange; to provide skills training; to offer free webinars and white papers on hot topics; and to acknowledge your successes through our global Awards. In other words: the Internet, and digital delivery, allows us to focus on your precise needs. Whether HR, F&A, or other function; whether inhouse or BPO; whether launching or mature – our web site makes it easy for you to narrow down your targets to get just the information you need (simply drop down on the "Topics" or "Maturity" tabs on the toolbar). We want you to know that whatever challenges you are facing, we are your partner. And if you cannot see what you are looking for online, or you simply don't know where to start, please let me know. We are constantly upgrading our services, across the globe, to provide you with the specialized know-how you need. So remember to make SSON part of your daily resource. Kind regards Barbara Hodge Online Editor – SSON
